With that, he asked in a regretful tone, “Why did you reject it? There was a chance to appear in the newspapers or even on television. This is a rare change that’ll never come twice.”
“I don’t want to be in the newspapers or on television. Besides, they will definitely ask me to talk about my experience when they interview me. 1 don’t have any experience to talk about.”
Her experience was to spend more time studying and have a good brother. Was this something that could be said?
“Alright, you’re amazing.”
“You said that Big Brother is very busy at school. What about you? How is school?” Ji Yuanyuan turned to ask about Ji Zi’ang’s school affairs.
Actually, she didn’t need to ask to know that Ji Zi’ang had no one to control him in the university, so he must have gone wild.
Ji Zi’ang did not answer the question. Instead, he stood up and pretended to walk to the kitchen, “Dad, Mom, is dinner ready? I’m hungry!”
It was obvious that he was trying to change the topic. Ji Yuanyuan did not argue with him.
If she wanted to know how he was doing in school, she would know in two months.
When she went to school in B City, she would sneak into his school to take a look.
With this thought in mind, Ji Yuanyuan did not pursue the matter further.
Seeing that lunch was not ready, Ji Yuanyuan returned to the bedroom and sat in front of the computer, listening to music while reading a novel.
Just as she was engrossed in the show, Ji Zi’ang barged in and pulled the earphones off Ji Yuanyuan’s ears, “Hua University’s enrollment teacher is calling. Come out and answer the phone.”
Compared to Ji Zi’ang’s excitement, Ji Yuanyuan’s emotions were rather calm.
After all, Ji Yuanyuan had already expected that Hua University and B University would definitely call her when they found out about her score.
These two schools were the top universities in the country, and their strengths were about the same. Every year, they would rack their brains in order to s.n.a.t.c.h students.
Ji Yuanyuan stood up calmly and went to the living room.
Li Xu stood beside the phone with a smile on her face, “This still depends on the child’s own wishes. She hasn’t thought about it yet. The results were just released yesterday, so she probably hasn’t come back to her senses yet.”
Zhang Kun had just turned off the kitchen’s fire when he hurriedly came out.
“Ji Yuanyuan’s results are very good. Hua University needs an outstanding talent like Ji Yuanyuan the most. She wondered which school and major Ji Yuanyuan would like to apply for in the future.”
Li Xu quickly waved at Ji Yuanyuan, “Come, speak with them.”
Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward and took the phone, “h.e.l.lo teacher, I want to apply for medical school.”
“Medical school is good. Our school’s medical school is very strong. We also had our own affiliated hospital, which had a good reputation. Since you want to apply for medical school, you must have some understanding, right?”
“Yes, I understand.”
“In addition, our school’s canteen is very big and delicious. The price is not expensive. The dormitories were ail four-person rooms and were very s.p.a.cious.”
“Not bad.”
The teacher saw that Ji Yuanyuan only said a few words after he had said so much. He could not help but throw out the bait, “Besides, our school also has rewards for outstanding candidates like you. First of all, our university tuition is free, and there’s also a scholarship of 200,000 yuan.”
“Two hundred thousand?” Ji Zi’ang’s mouth was wide open in shock.
He had to spend money to go to school, but his sister was actually helping the family earn money?
Thinking of this, he felt a strong sense of defeat.
“I’m sorry, Teacher. I really haven’t thought about it yet. I need time to think about it.” Ji Yuanyuan replied politely.
She wanted to go to Hua University, but she was afraid Li Xu and Zhang Kun would not agree.
Of course, her desire to go to Hua University was not that strong. She did not want to disappoint her parents on this matter.
After exchanging a few more pleasantries with the teacher from the student recruitment office, Ji Yuanyuan hung up the phone.
After she hung up, Zhang Kun sighed and said, “These schools are too generous. They gave you 200,000 yuan just like that?”
“That means our Yuanyuan is worth it! I heard that this year’s questions are more difficult than the previous years. It’s quite amazing that Yuanyuan can get such a score.” Ji Zi’ang said proudly.
The school wasn’t stupid. 200,000 yuan?
“It doesn’t matter if it’s 200,000 or 300,000. Our family doesn’t need this bit of money. I think it’s better to let Yuanyuan go to B University. She’s young and will be easily bullied in unfamiliar places. At B University, Zixuan can take care of her, so we can rest a.s.sured.”
Zhang Kun nodded thoughtfully, “That’s true. B University and Hua University are about the same in terms of strength.”
“Since Hua University has given such conditions, B University will definitely call to express their agreement. When the time comes, you can make appropriate requests and see how much they can offer.” Ji Zi’ang said with a smile.
Li Xu was about to say something when she suddenly slapped her thigh in frustration, “It’s over. Did I scold the B University student recruitment team?”
“Didn’t someone call me at five o’clock this morning?” She looked at Zhang Kun bitterly. “He said that he was from B University’s student recruitment team. 1 was in a daze at that time and thought he was a liar, so I scolded him. Now that 1 thought about it, it was possible he was really from B University’s student recruitment team.”
“What did you scold him with?” He asked hurriedly.
“I scolded him for disturbing people’s sleep so early in the morning.” Li Xu said truthfully.
Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang heaved a sigh of relief, “Fortunately, the scolding wasn’t very unpleasant and there was still room for redemption.”
“Then do you think we should call back? Just say that this is a misunderstanding?” Li Xu looked at the others and asked with uncertainty.
“Let’s wait. They could only blame themselves for being too diligent. Who would call someone at five in the morning? Maybe they will call again later! Let’s stay calm. Maybe we can talk about the conditions. This kind of thing was the same as being in a relationship.”
Ji Zi’ang a.n.a.lyzed seriously.
“You’re right!” Li Xu nodded.
After saying that, she felt something was wrong. “Are you in love?”
“How is that possible?” Ji Zi’ang immediately retorted. “Women will only affect my studies.”
He paused for a moment and smiled awkwardly, “But I’m already in university, and my eighteenth birthday is already over. It’s fine even if I’m in a relationship, right?”
Li Xu rolled her eyes at him, “I’m just afraid that you’ll harm other people’s girls. You’re so reckless.”
After saying that, Li Xu stood up and walked to the kitchen, “Let’s eat first.”
Ji Zi’ang felt that he had escaped a calamity and quickly rubbed his chest, heaving a sigh of relief.
Zhang Kun looked at Ji Zi’ang thoughtfully and pulled out an ambiguous smile.
Ji Zi’ang’s breathing stopped. When Zhang Kun entered the kitchen, he asked Ji Yuanyuan softly, “What was that expression on Dad’s face just now?”
Ji Yuanyuan blinked, “The expression of someone who sees things clearly! How is she?”
